I almost wonder if it would read easier if you said, "I'm uncomfortable with my daughters receiving things I can no longer provide, from one I cannot trust." But I don't know if you can go back and edit these pages.
I just found your comic and positively DEVOURED it over the last 5ish ours or so...what a lovely break from schoolwork!
I must say, I'm thoroughly impressed with where you've taken the storyline and how you fleshed out the characters. You have a new fan here, looking forward to the next update!
I just wanted to say how much I love your line work. So clean and beautiful. :) been reading this comic for awhile, Beauty and the Beast is my favorite fairytale. Keep up the gorgeous work!
Oh Papa, I get your concern, but I would trust Beauty where these gifts are concerned. Honestly, the suggestion to use these gifts to better their family's circumstances is a good one, and I hope that his pride doesn't get in the way of him seeing that. I feel like Virtue, at least, sees the value in selling the dresses--after all, she has a child to provide for, and what parent wouldn't want to make sure that their child had the best they could give them? I feel like this situation won't be resolved so easily, though.
They look glorious, by the way, fantastic job!
Oh, the awkward in this page.
What Virtue and Temperance think it's compensation for is pretty obvious from their expression.

Nice way of thinking, Mr. Gothel.
